DAYTON, OH. - Junior Andrea Holden has been named the Horizon League's Player of the Week to open the 2026-27 regular season. Holden helped lead the Raiders to a 2-0 start to the season, earning wins in front of a sold out crowd as Wright State hosted the Air Force, along with a 97-71 victory in the Nutter Center against FAU.
Holden averaged 19.5 points per game, with 11 rebounds a night. Holden's 11 rebounds a night is the highest average in the Horizon League. The winger shot 68.4% from the field. Holden has averaged a double-double (and earned a double-double) in every game to start this season.
His 20 points in front of 10,500 fans in the season opener against Air Force mark a new career high for the junior. He shot 7-10 from the field (1-1 from beyond the arc) in that contest. He's led the Raiders in rebounds both games, ranking 14th in the country in rebounds a night. Holden is averaging seven defensive boards per game, the most in the conference, while snagging four offensive rebounds a game, the second most in the Horizon League this season.
Holden's 19.5 points per game this week is tied for the fifth best average in the conference, the most points per game by any member of the frontcourt in the Horizon League thus far.
Don't watch the next one on your phone.
The reigning Horizon League champions are back at the Nutter Center Wednesday, Nov. 18, against Malone. Tip is at 7:30 p.m.
Here's the deal: you pick the game, you pick the seats, you're in. No waiting on a box office line. No guessing what's left. Just you, the Raiders and a building that gets loud.
